Letter: Vote Jane Patton for Select Board
Sadly, our town seems very divided. We need strong and thoughtful leadership to show us the way to better times.
Letter: Rep. Davis Asks for Support Passing 'Upskirting' Bill
Secretly filming a nude child in a bathroom is only a misdemeanor, while filming under a child's clothing in public is a felony. That inconsistency leaves children and vulnerable people exposed.

Letter: Pittsfield's Potholes Are a Joke — But the Punchline Is Us
Year after year, the same lazy patch jobs fall apart, using the same materials and the same contractors who benefit from doing it wrong. The city shrugs, blames the weather, and cuts another check. Rinse, repeat.
Letter: Black History Month Deserves to Be Celebrated Every Day
I believe that no matter who you are, where you are, and what you believe in, we the people have an obligation to celebrate the beauty of the people and cultures around us.
Letter: fire station damage
Wind damage to new fire station construction reported about five days late? Hello?
